Description
The cooling process is a crucial step in any histology laboratory, essential for obtaining high-quality paraffin block sections. Without proper cooling, achieving good cuts is nearly impossible, which slows down procedures and reduces efficiency. The YR440 Cooling Plate is designed to solve this problem by offering fast and uniform cooling, facilitating more precise and efficient cuts. With a Teflon coating, this plate ensures easy cleaning and maintenance, making it an indispensable tool for any histology laboratory.
The YR440 Cooling Plate uses a new type of inverter compressor, allowing for the rapid cooling of paraffin blocks. This model also allows for free temperature adjustment, providing greater flexibility to prevent the wax in the tissue from getting too cold or cracking. Proper temperature adjustment is crucial to avoid cracks in paraffin blocks, which could render the sample useless. The YR440, with its cryo-plate area of 320x300mm, ensures that your paraffin blocks are in optimal condition for cutting.
